(d)               Section 4(a)(2) and Regulation D. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of each Buyer and Liquidia set forth in Section 2 and Section 3, respectively, the parties acknowledge and agree that the purpose of such representations and warranties is, among other things, to ensure that the transaction contemplated hereby qualify as a sale of securities under Section 4(a)(2) of the 1933 Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D as promulgated by the SEC under the 1933 Act.

2.            BUYER’S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Each Buyer, severally and not jointly, represents and warrants with respect to only itself to Liquidia that, as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date:

Such Buyer is a duly incorporated or organized and validly existing corporation, limited partnership, limited liability company or other legal entity, has all requisite corporate, partnership or limited liability company power and authority to enter into and consummate the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (as defined below) and to carry out its obligations hereunder and thereunder, and to invest in the Common Shares pursuant to this Agreement, and is in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization.

(b)               No Public Sale or Distribution. Such Buyer is acquiring the Common Shares for its own account, not as nominee or agent, for the purpose of investment and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted under the 1933 Act; provided, however, that by making the representations herein, such Buyer does not agree to hold any of the Common Shares for any minimum or other specific term and reserves the right to dispose of the Common Shares at any time in accordance with or pursuant to a registration statement or an exemption under the 1933 Act. Such Buyer is acquiring the Common Shares hereunder in the ordinary course of its business. Such Buyer does not presently have any agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any Person to distribute any of the Common Shares. For purposes of this Agreement, “Person” means an individual, a limited liability company, a partnership, a joint venture, a corporation, a trust, an unincorporated organization and a government or any department or agency thereof.

(c)               Accredited Investor Status; No Disqualification Events. Such Buyer is (i) an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D and (ii) an “Institutional Account” as defined in FINRA Rule 4512(c). Such Buyer has executed and delivered to Liquidia a questionnaire in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Investor Questionnaire”), which such Buyer represents and warrants is true, correct and complete. Such Buyer is a sophisticated institutional investor with sufficient knowledge and experience in investing in private equity transactions to properly evaluate the risks and merits of its purchase of the Common Shares. None of the “bad actor” disqualifications described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i) through (viii) under the 1933 Act (“Disqualification Events”) are applicable to such Buyer or any of its Rule 506(d) Related Parties (as defined below), except, if applicable, for a Disqualification Event as to which Rule 506(d)(2)(ii) or (iii) or (d)(3) is applicable. Such Buyer hereby agrees that it shall notify Liquidia promptly in writing in the event a Disqualification Event becomes applicable to such Buyer or any of its Rule 506(d) Related Parties, except, if applicable, for a Disqualification Event as to which Rule 506(d)(2)(ii) or (iii) or (d)(3) is applicable. For purposes of this Section 2(b), “Rule 506(d) Related Party” shall mean a Person that is a beneficial owner of such Buyer’s securities for purposes of Rule 506(d) of the 1933 Act. Except as set forth on Schedule 2(b), such Buyer is not, and has not been, for a period of at least three (3) months prior to the date of this Agreement (a) an officer or director of Liquidia, (b) an “affiliate” of Liquidia (as defined in Rule 144) (an “Affiliate”), or (c) a “beneficial owner” of more than 10% of Liquidia’s Common Stock (as defined for purposes of Rule 13d-3 of the 1934 Act).

(d)               Placement Agent. Such Buyer hereby acknowledges and agrees that (a) the Placement Agent is acting solely as placement agent in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents and is not acting as an underwriter or in any other capacity and is not and shall not be construed as a fiduciary for such Buyer, Liquidia or any other person or entity in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents, (b) the Placement Agent has not made or will make any representation or warranty, whether express or implied, of any kind or character, or has provided any advice or recommendation in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents, (c) the Placement Agent will not have any responsibility with respect to (i) any representations, warranties or agreements made by any person or entity under or in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents, or the execution, legality, validity or enforceability (with respect to any person) thereof, or (ii) the business, affairs, financial condition, operations, properties or prospects of, or any other matter concerning Liquidia, and (d) the Placement Agent will not have any liability or obligation (including without limitation, for or with respect to any losses, claims, damages, obligations, penalties, judgments, awards, liabilities, costs, expenses or disbursements incurred by such Buyer, Liquidia or any other person or entity), whether in contract, tort or otherwise, to such Buyer, or to any person claiming through it, in respect of the execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents.

(e)               No General Solicitation. Such Buyer did not learn of the investment in the Common Shares as a result of any general or public solicitation or general advertising, or publicly disseminated advertisements or sales literature, including (a) any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine, website, or similar media, or broadcast over television or radio, or (b) any seminar or meeting to which such Buyer was invited by any of the foregoing means of communications.

(f)                Brokers and Finders. Other than the Placement Agent, no Person will have, as a result of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, any valid right, interest or claim against or upon Liquidia or a Buyer for any commission, fee or other compensation pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding entered into by or on behalf of such Buyer.

(g)               Short Sales and Confidentiality Prior to the Date Hereof. Other than consummating the transactions contemplated hereunder, such Buyer has not, nor has any Person acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with such Buyer, directly or indirectly executed any purchases or sales, including “short sales” (as defined in Rule 200 of Regulation SHO under the 1934 Act), of the securities of Liquidia during the period commencing as of the time that such Buyer was first contacted by Liquidia, the Placement Agent or any other Person regarding the transactions contemplated hereby and ending immediately prior to the date hereof.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Buyer that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Buyer’s assets and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Buyer’s assets, the representation set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Common Shares covered by this Agreement. Other than to other Persons party to this Agreement and other than to such Person’s outside attorney, accountant, auditor or investment advisor only to the extent necessary to permit evaluation of the investment, and the performance of the necessary or required tax, accounting, financial, legal, or administrative tasks and services and other than as may be required by law, such Buyer has maintained the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection with this transaction (including the existence and terms of this transaction). Notwithstanding the foregoing, for avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall constitute a representation or warranty, or preclude any actions, with respect to the identification of the availability of, or securing of, available shares to borrow in order to effect “short sales” or similar transactions in the future.

(h)               Reliance on Exemptions. Such Buyer understands that the Common Shares are being offered and sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of U.S. federal and state securities laws and that Liquidia is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and such Buyer’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of such Buyer set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of such Buyer to acquire the Common Shares.

(i)                 Information. Such Buyer has been furnished with all materials relating to the business, finances and operations of Liquidia and materials relating to the transactions contemplated hereunder that have been requested by such Buyer. Such Buyer has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of Liquidia. Neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence investigations conducted by such Buyer or its representatives shall modify, amend or affect such Buyer’s right to rely on Liquidia’s representations and warranties contained herein. Such Buyer acknowledges that all of the documents filed by Liquidia with the SEC under Sections 13(a), 14(a) or 15(d) of the 1934 Act that have been posted on the SEC’s EDGAR site are available to such Buyer, and such Buyer has not relied on any statement of Liquidia not contained in such documents in connection with such Buyer’s decision to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Such Buyer has not relied on any information or advice furnished by or on behalf of the Placement Agent or any other Buyer in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby.

(j)                 Risk. Such Buyer understands that its investment in the Common Shares involves a high degree of risk. Such Buyer is able to bear the risk of an investment in the Common Shares, including, without limitation, the risk of total loss of its investment. Such Buyer has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby. Such Buyer understands that there is no assurance that the Common Shares will continue to be quoted, traded or listed for trading or quotation on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) or on any other organized market or quotation system.

(k)               No Governmental Review. Such Buyer understands that no U.S. federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Common Shares or the fairness or suitability of the investment in the Common Shares nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Common Shares.

(l)                No Intent to Effect a Change of Control. Such Buyer has no present intent to effect a “change of control” of Liquidia as such term is understood under the rules promulgated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act.

(m)              Residency. Such Buyer’s office in which its investment decision with respect to the Common Shares was made is located at the address immediately below such Buyer’s name on its signature page hereto.

(n)               Transfer or Resale. Such Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the Common Shares are “restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act as in effect from time to time (or a successor rule thereto) (“Rule 144”) and must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the 1933 Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Buyer has been advised or is aware of the provisions of Rule 144, which permits limited resale of shares purchased in a private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including, among other things: the availability of certain current public information about Liquidia, the resale occurring following the required holding period under Rule 144 and the number of shares being sold during any three-month period not exceeding specified limitations.

(o)               Authorization; Validity; Enforcement. Such Buyer has all requisite power and authority to enter into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which such Buyer is a party, to carry out its obligations hereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which such Buyer is a party have been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered on behalf of such Buyer and shall constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of such Buyer enforceable against such Buyer in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity or to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation and other similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors’ rights and remedies.

(p)               Legends. Such Buyer understands that the certificates or other instruments representing the Common Shares, until such time as the exchange or resale of the Common Shares have been registered under the 1933 Act, may bear a restrictive legend in the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of such Common Shares):

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE. THESE SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY AND RESALE AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED OR RESOLD EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER THE ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, PURSUANT TO REGISTRATION OR EXEMPTION THEREFROM. INVESTORS SHOULD BE AWARE THAT THEY MAY BE REQUIRED TO BEAR THE FINANCIAL RISKS OF THIS INVESTMENT FOR AN INDEFINITE PERIOD OF TIME. THE ISSUER OF THESE SECURITIES MAY REQUIRE AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER TO THE EFFECT THAT ANY PROPOSED TRANSFER OR RESALE IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

In addition, if any Buyer is an affiliate of Liquidia, the Common Shares issued to such Buyer may bear a customary “affiliates” legend. Furthermore, Buyer understands that, if required by the authorities of any state in connection with the issuance of sale of the Common Shares, the Common Shares may bear the legend required by such state authority.

(q)               No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance by such Buyer of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which such Buyer is a party and the consummation by such Buyer of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will not (i) result in a violation of the organizational documents of such Buyer or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which such Buyer is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws) applicable to such Buyer, except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, for such conflicts, defaults, rights or violations which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of such Buyer to perform its obligations hereunder.

3.            REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF LIQUIDIA.

Liquidia represents and warrants to each of the Buyers that, as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date, except as set forth on the Disclosure Schedule attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Disclosure Schedule”) (references to a “Schedule” in this Agreement shall be deemed to refer to a schedule contained in the Disclosure Schedule unless otherwise expressly provided):

(a)               Organization and Qualification. Liquidia is an entity duly organized and validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of Delaware, and has the requisite corporate power and authorization to own its properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted and as presently proposed to be conducted. Liquidia is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which its ownership of property or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary, except to the extent that the failure to be so qualified or be in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. As used in this Agreement, “Material Adverse Effect” means any material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets, liabilities, operations, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of Liquidia, individually or taken as a whole, or on the transactions contemplated hereby or on the other Transaction Documents (as defined below) or by the agreements and instruments to be entered into in connection herewith or therewith, or on the authority or ability of Liquidia to perform any of its obligations under any of the Transaction Documents. Liquidia does not, directly or indirectly, own any of the capital stock or hold an equity or similar interest in any entity.

(b)               Authorization; Enforcement; Validity. Liquidia has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement, that certain Registration Rights Agreement, by and among the parties hereto, dated on or about the date hereof (as may be amended, amended and restated, or supplemented from time to time), and each of the other agreements entered into by Liquidia in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, the “Transaction Documents”) and to issue the Common Shares in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents by Liquidia and the consummation by Liquidia of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including, without limitation, the issuance of the Common Shares, have been duly authorized by Liquidia’s Board of Directors and (other than the filing of a Form D with the SEC and any other filings as may be required by any state securities agencies), no further filing, consent or authorization is required by Liquidia, its Board of Directors or its stockholders. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents have been duly executed and delivered by Liquidia, and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of Liquidia, enforceable against Liquidia in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity or applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors’ rights and remedies.

(c)               Issuance of Common Shares. The issuance of the Common Shares is duly authorized and, upon issuance in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents, the Common Shares shall be validly issued and free from all preemptive or similar rights (except for those which have been validly waived prior to the date hereof), taxes, liens and charges and other encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof and the Common Shares shall be fully paid and nonassessable with the holders being entitled to all rights accorded to a holder of Liquidia Common Stock. Assuming the accuracy of each of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 2 of this Agreement, the offer and issuance by Liquidia of the Common Shares is exempt from registration under the 1933 Act. The offer and issuance of the Common Shares hereunder will not obligate Liquidia to issue shares of Common Stock or other securities to any other Person (other than the Buyers) and will not result in the adjustment of the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price of any outstanding security.

(d)               No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by Liquidia and the consummation by Liquidia of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including, without limitation, the issuance of the Common Shares) will not (i) result in a violation of Liquidia’s certificate of incorporation, as amended and restated and as in effect on the date hereof (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), or Liquidia’s bylaws, as amended and restated and as in effect on the date hereof (the “Bylaws”), or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) in any respect under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which Liquidia is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any applicable law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including foreign, federal and state securities laws and regulations) applicable to Liquidia or by which any property or asset of Liquidia is bound or affected, except, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, as would not have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(e)               Consents. Liquidia is not required to obtain any consent from, authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration with (other than the filing of a Form D with the SEC and any other filings as may be required by any state securities agencies), any court, governmental agency or any regulatory or self-regulatory agency or any other Person in order for it to execute, deliver or perform any of its obligations under or contemplated by the Transaction Documents, in each case, in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof. All consents, authorizations, orders, filings and registrations which Liquidia is required to obtain pursuant to the preceding sentence have been obtained or effected on or prior to the Closing Date (or in the case of filings detailed above, will be made timely after the Closing Date).

(f)                Acknowledgment Regarding Buyer’s Purchase of Common Shares. Liquidia acknowledges and agrees that each Buyer is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length purchaser with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and that, except as set forth on Schedule 3(f), no Buyer is (i) an officer or director of Liquidia, (ii) an “affiliate” of Liquidia (as defined in Rule 144) or (iii) to the knowledge of Liquidia, a “beneficial owner” (as defined for purposes of Rule 13d-3 of the 1934 Act) of more than 10% of the Liquidia Common Stock. Liquidia further acknowledges that no Buyer is acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of Liquidia or any other Buyer (or in any similar capacity) with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and any advice given by a Buyer or any of its representatives or agents in connection with the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby is merely incidental to such Buyer’s purchase of the Common Shares. Liquidia further represents to each Buyer that Liquidia’s decision to enter into the Transaction Documents has been based solely on the independent evaluation by Liquidia and its representatives.

(g)               SEC Reports; Financial Statements. Liquidia has filed all reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents required to be filed by Liquidia under the 1933 Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), including pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the 1934 Act, for the twelve (12) months preceding the date of this Agreement (the foregoing materials, including the exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein, being collectively referred to herein as the “SEC Reports”) on a timely basis or has received a valid extension of such time of filing and has filed any such SEC Reports prior to the expiration of any such extension. As of their respective dates, the SEC Reports complied in all material respects with the requirements of the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act, as applicable, and none of the SEC Reports, when filed, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The financial statements of Liquidia included in the SEC Reports comply in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) with respect thereto as in effect at the time of filing. Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (“GAAP”), except as may be otherwise specified in such financial statements or the notes thereto and except that unaudited financial statements may not contain all footnotes required by GAAP, and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of Liquidia as of and for the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended, subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal, immaterial, year-end audit adjustments. As of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date, there are no outstanding or unresolved comments received from the staff of the SEC with respect to the SEC Reports, and to Liquidia’s knowledge, none of the SEC Reports is the subject of any ongoing SEC review or investigation.

(h)               Subsidiaries. Liquidia does not have any subsidiaries.

(i)                No General Solicitation; Placement Agent’s Fees. Neither Liquidia, nor its affiliates, nor any Person acting on its or their behalf, has engaged in any form of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D) in connection with the offer or sale of the Common Shares. Liquidia shall be responsible for the payment of the Placement Agent’s fees described on Schedule 3(i), which shall be the only such placement agent fees, financial advisory fees, or brokers’ commissions (other than for Persons engaged by any Buyer or its investment advisor) relating to or arising out of the transactions contemplated hereby. Liquidia shall pay, and hold each Buyer harmless against, any liability, loss or expense (including, without limitation, attorney’s fees and out-of-pocket expenses) arising in connection with any such claim.

(j)                No Integrated Offering. Neither Liquidia, nor any of its affiliates, nor any Person acting on its behalf has, directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would require registration of the issuance of any of the Common Shares under the 1933 Act, whether through integration with prior offerings or otherwise, or cause this offering of the Common Shares to require approval of stockholders of Liquidia for purposes of the 1933 Act or any applicable stockholder approval provisions, including, without limitation, under the rules and regulations of any exchange or automated quotation system on which any of the securities of Liquidia are listed or designated for quotation. Neither Liquidia nor its affiliates nor any Person acting on their behalf will take any action or steps that would require registration of the issuance of any of the Common Shares under the 1933 Act or cause the offering of any of the Common Shares to be integrated with other offerings for purposes of any such applicable stockholder approval provisions.

(k)               Application of Takeover Protections; Rights Agreement. Liquidia and its Board of Directors have taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render inapplicable any control share acquisition, interested stockholder, business combination, poison pill (including, without limitation, any distribution under a rights agreement) or other similar anti-takeover provision under the Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws or other organizational documents or the laws of the jurisdiction of its formation which is or could become applicable to any Buyer as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, Liquidia’s issuance of the Common Shares and any Buyer’s ownership of the Common Shares. Liquidia and its Board of Directors have taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render inapplicable any stockholder rights plan or similar arrangement relating to accumulations of beneficial ownership of Liquidia Common Stock or a change in control of Liquidia.

(l)                 Absence of Certain Changes. Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, since September 30, 2019, there has been no material adverse change and no material adverse development in the business, assets, liabilities, properties, operations, condition (financial or otherwise), results of operations or prospects of Liquidia. Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, since September 30, 2019, Liquidia has not (i) declared or paid any dividends, (ii) sold any assets, individually or in the aggregate, in excess of $100,000 outside of the ordinary course of business or (iii) had capital expenditures, individually or in the aggregate, in excess of $350,000. Liquidia has not taken any steps to seek protection pursuant to any law or statute relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, liquidation or winding up, nor does Liquidia have any knowledge or reason to believe that any of its creditors intend to initiate involuntary bankruptcy proceedings or any actual knowledge of any fact which would reasonably lead a creditor to do so. Liquidia is not as of the date hereof, and after giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereby to occur at the Closing, will not be Insolvent (as defined below). For purposes of this Agreement, “Insolvent” means, with respect to any Person, (i) the present fair saleable value of such Person’s assets is less than the amount required to pay such Person’s total Indebtedness (as defined below), (ii) such Person is unable to pay its debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured, (iii) such Person intends to incur or believes that it will incur debts that would be beyond its ability to pay as such debts mature or (iv) such Person has unreasonably small capital with which to conduct the business in which it is engaged as such business is now conducted and is proposed to be conducted.

(n)               Conduct of Business; Regulatory Permits. Liquidia is not in violation of any term of or in default under the Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws. Liquidia is not in violation of any judgment, decree or order or any statute, ordinance, rule or regulation applicable to Liquidia, and Liquidia will not conduct its business in violation of any of the foregoing, except in all cases for possible violations which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Liquidia possesses all certificates, authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate foreign, federal or state regulatory authorities necessary to conduct its business, except where the failure to possess such certificates, authorizations or permits would not have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, and Liquidia has not received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such certificate, authorization or permit. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Liquidia has no knowledge of any facts or circumstances that would reasonably lead to delisting or suspension of Common Stock by Nasdaq in the foreseeable future. The Company is in compliance with applicable Nasdaq continued listing requirements. The issuance and sale of the Common Shares does not contravene the rules and regulations of Nasdaq.

(o)               Foreign Corrupt Practices. Neither Liquidia, nor any director, officer, agent, employee or other Person acting on behalf of Liquidia has, in the course of its actions for, or on behalf of, Liquidia (i) used any corporate funds for any unlawful contribution, gift, entertainment or other unlawful expenses relating to political activity; (ii) made any direct or indirect unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or employee from corporate funds; (iii) violated or is in violation of any provision of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended; or (iv) made any unlawful bribe, rebate, payoff, influence payment, kickback or other unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or employee.

(q)               Equity Capitalization. As of the date hereof, the authorized capital stock of Liquidia consists of (I) 40,000,000 shares of Liquidia Common Stock, of which as of November 30, 2019, 18,657,154 were issued and outstanding, 2,058,065 shares were issuable under outstanding options to purchase Liquidia Common Stock at a weighted average exercise price of $9.3438 per share, 7,727 shares were issuable upon the vesting of restricted stock units and 106,274 shares were issuable under outstanding warrants to purchase Liquidia Common Stock, each with an exercise price of $0.0168 per share, and (II) 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock of Liquidia, none of which are issued or outstanding. All of the issued and outstanding shares of Liquidia’s capital stock have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable; none of such shares were issued in violation of any preemptive rights; and such shares were issued in compliance with applicable state and federal securities law and any rights of third parties. There are no other outstanding warrants, options, convertible securities or other rights, agreements or arrangements of any character under which Liquidia is or may be obligated to issue any equity securities of any kind, except as contemplated by this Agreement. There are no voting agreements, buy-sell agreements, option or right of first purchase agreements or other agreements of any kind among Liquidia and any of its securityholders relating to Liquidia securities held by them. Except as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement, and except as provided in that certain Seventh Amended and Restated Investors’ Rights Agreement, dated as of February 2, 2018, by and among Liquidia and certain investors signatory thereto, no Person has the right to require Liquidia to register any Liquidia securities under the 1933 Act, whether on a demand basis or in connection with the registration of Liquidia securities for its own account or for the account of any other Person.

(r)                Indebtedness and Other Contracts. Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, Liquidia (i) is not a party to any contract, agreement or instrument, the violation of which, or default under which, by the other party(ies) to such contract, agreement or instrument would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, or (ii) is not in violation of any term of, or in default under, any contract, agreement or instrument relating to any Indebtedness, except where such violations and defaults would not result, individually or in the aggregate, in a Material Adverse Effect. For purposes of this Agreement: (x) “Indebtedness” of any Person means, without duplication (A) all indebtedness for borrowed money, (B) all obligations issued, undertaken or assumed as the deferred purchase price of property or services (including, without limitation, “capital leases” in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied during the periods involved) (other than trade payables entered into in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice), (C) all reimbursement or payment obligations with respect to letters of credit, surety bonds and other similar instruments, (D) all obligations evidenced by notes, bonds, debentures or similar instruments, including obligations so evidenced incurred in connection with the acquisition of property, assets or businesses, (E) all indebtedness created or arising under any conditional sale or other title retention agreement, or incurred as financing, in either case with respect to any property or assets acquired with the proceeds of such indebtedness (even though the rights and remedies of the seller or bank under such agreement in the event of default are limited to repossession or sale of such property), (F) all monetary obligations under any leasing or similar arrangement which, in connection with GAAP, consistently applied for the periods covered thereby, is classified as a capital lease, (G) all indebtedness referred to in clauses (A) through (F) above secured by (or for which the holder of such Indebtedness has an existing right, contingent or otherwise, to be secured by) any mortgage, claim, lien, tax, right of first refusal, pledge, charge, security interest or other encumbrance upon or in any property or assets (including accounts and contract rights) owned by any Person, even though the Person which owns such assets or property has not assumed or become liable for the payment of such indebtedness, and (H) all Contingent Obligations in respect of indebtedness or obligations of others of the kinds referred to in clauses (A) through (G) above; and (y) “Contingent Obligation” means, as to any Person, any direct or indirect liability, contingent or otherwise, of that Person with respect to any indebtedness, capital lease, dividend or other obligation of another Person if the primary purpose or intent of the Person incurring such liability, or the primary effect thereof, is to provide assurance to the obligee of such liability that such liability will be paid or discharged, or that any agreements relating thereto will be complied with, or that the holders of such liability will be protected (in whole or in part) against loss with respect thereto.

(s)                Absence of Litigation. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of Liquidia, threatened against or affecting Liquidia, the Liquidia Common Stock or any of Liquidia’s officers or directors, whether of a civil or criminal nature or otherwise, in their capacities as such, except as set forth in the SEC Reports. The litigation matters set forth in the SEC Reports would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(t)                 Employee Relations. Liquidia is not a party to any collective bargaining agreement, nor does it employ any member of a union. Liquidia believes that its relations with its employees are good. No executive officer (as defined in Rule 501(f) promulgated under the 1933 Act) or other key employee of Liquidia has notified Liquidia that such officer intends to leave Liquidia or otherwise terminate such officer’s employment with Liquidia. No executive officer or other key employee of Liquidia is, or is now expected to be, in violation of any material term of any employment contract, confidentiality, disclosure or proprietary information agreement, non-competition agreement, or any other contract or agreement or any restrictive covenant, and the continued employment of each such executive officer or other key employee (as the case may be) does not subject Liquidia to any liability with respect to any of the foregoing matters. Liquidia is in compliance with all federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations respecting labor, employment and employment practices and benefits, terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours, except where failure to be in compliance would not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(u)               Title. Liquidia has good and marketable title in fee simple to all real property and good and marketable title to all personal property owned by it which is material to the business of Liquidia, in each case free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and defects except such as do not materially affect the value of such property and do not interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property by Liquidia. Any real property and facilities held under lease by Liquidia is held by it under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases with such exceptions as are not material and do not interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property and buildings by Liquidia.

(v)               Intellectual Property Rights. Liquidia owns, or has obtained valid and enforceable licenses for, the inventions, patent applications, patents, trademarks, trade names, service names, copyrights, trade secrets and other intellectual property described in the SEC Reports as being owned or licensed by it or which are necessary for the conduct of its business as currently conducted or as currently proposed to be conducted, in each case as described in the SEC Reports (collectively, “Intellectual Property”), except for such exceptions as could not be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.  To Liquidia’s knowledge:  (i) there are no third parties who have rights to any Intellectual Property, except for customary reversionary rights of third-party licensors with respect to Intellectual Property that is disclosed in the SEC Reports as licensed to Liquidia; and (ii) there is no infringement by third parties of any Intellectual Property.  There is no pending or, to Liquidia’s knowledge, threatened action, suit, proceeding or claim by others: (A) challenging Liquidia’s rights in or to any Intellectual Property, and Liquidia is unaware of any facts which would form a reasonable basis for any such action, suit, proceeding or claim; (B) challenging the validity, enforceability or scope of any Intellectual Property, and Liquidia is unaware of any facts which would form a reasonable basis for any such action, suit, proceeding or claim; or (C) asserting that Liquidia infringes or otherwise violates, or would, upon the commercialization of any product or service described in the SEC Reports as under development, infringe or violate, any patent, trademark, trade name, service name, copyright, trade secret or other proprietary rights of others, and Liquidia is unaware of any facts which would form a reasonable basis for any such action, suit, proceeding or claim.  Liquidia has complied in all material respects with the terms of each agreement pursuant to which Intellectual Property has been licensed to Liquidia, and all such agreements are in full force and effect.  The product candidates described in the SEC Reports as under development by Liquidia fall within the scope of the claims of one or more patents or patent applications owned by, or exclusively licensed to, Liquidia.

(w)             Environmental Laws. Liquidia (A) is in compliance with all Environmental Laws (as defined below), (B) has received all permits, licenses or other approvals required of it under applicable Environmental Laws to conduct its business and (C) is in compliance with all terms and conditions of any such permit, license or approval where, in each of the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C), the failure to so comply could be reasonably expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. The term “Environmental Laws” means all federal, state, local or foreign laws relating to pollution or protection of human health or the environment (including, without limitation, ambient air, surface water, groundwater, land surface or subsurface strata), including, without limitation, laws relating to emissions, discharges, releases or threatened releases of chemicals, pollutants, contaminants, or toxic or hazardous substances or wastes (collectively, “Hazardous Materials”) into the environment, or otherwise relating to the manufacture, processing, distribution, use, treatment, storage, disposal, transport or handling of Hazardous Materials, as well as all authorizations, codes, decrees, demands or demand letters, injunctions, judgments, licenses, notices or notice letters, orders, permits, plans or regulations issued, entered, promulgated or approved thereunder.

(x)               Tax Status. Liquidia (i) has timely filed all foreign, federal and state income and all other tax returns, reports and declarations required by any jurisdiction to which it is subject, (ii) has timely paid all taxes and other governmental assessments and charges that are material in amount, shown or determined to be due on such returns, reports and declarations, except those being contested in good faith, and (iii) has set aside on its books provision reasonably adequate for the payment of all taxes for periods subsequent to the periods to which such returns, reports or declarations apply. There are no unpaid taxes in any material amount claimed to be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of Liquidia know of no basis for any such claim.

(y)               Investment Company Status. Liquidia is not, and upon consummation of the sale of the Common Shares, will not be, an “investment company,” an affiliate of an “investment company,” a company controlled by an “investment company” or an “affiliated person” of, or “promoter” or “principal underwriter” for, an “investment company” as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

(z)               U.S. Real Property Holding Corporation. Liquidia is not, and has never been, a U.S. real property holding corporation within the meaning of Section 897 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and Liquidia shall so certify upon any Buyer’s reasonable request.

(cc)            No Conflicts with Sanctions Laws. Neither Liquidia nor any director, officer, employee, agent, affiliate or other person associated with or acting on behalf of Liquidia or any of its affiliates is, or is directly or indirectly owned or controlled by, a Person that is currently the subject or the target of any sanctions administered or enforced by the U.S. government (including, without limitation, the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the U.S. Department of the Treasury or the U.S. Departments of State or Commerce and including, without limitation, the designation as a “Specially Designated National” or on the “Sectoral Sanctions Identifications List”, collectively “Blocked Persons”), the United Nations Security Council, the European Union, Her Majesty’s Treasury or any other relevant sanctions authority (collectively, “Sanctions Laws”); neither Liquidia, nor any director, officer, employee, agent, affiliate or other person associated with or acting on behalf of Liquidia or its affiliates, is located, organized or resident in a country or territory that is the subject or target of a comprehensive embargo or Sanctions Laws prohibiting trade with the country or territory, including, without limitation, Crimea, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan and Syria (each, a “Sanctioned Country”); Liquidia maintains in effect and enforces policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure compliance by Liquidia with applicable Sanctions Laws; neither Liquidia, nor any director, officer, employee, agent, affiliate or other person associated with or acting on behalf of Liquidia or its affiliates, acting in any capacity in connection with the operations of Liquidia, conducts any business with or for the benefit of any Blocked Person or engages in making or receiving any contribution of funds, goods or services to, from or for the benefit of any Blocked Person, or deals in, or otherwise engages in any transaction relating to, any property or interests in property blocked or subject to blocking pursuant to any applicable Sanctions Laws; no action of Liquidia in connection with (i) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, (ii) the issuance and sale of the Common Shares, or (iii) the direct or indirect use of proceeds from the Common Shares or the consummation of any other transaction contemplated hereby or by the other Transaction Documents or the fulfillment of the terms hereof or thereof, will result in the proceeds of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Transaction Documents being used, or loaned, contributed or otherwise made available, directly or indirectly, to any joint venture partner or other person or entity, for the purpose of (i) unlawfully funding or facilitating any activities of or business with any person that, at the time of such funding or facilitation, is the subject or target of Sanctions Laws, (ii) unlawfully funding or facilitating any activities of or business in any Sanctioned Country or (iii) in any other manner that will result in a violation by any Person (including any Person participating in the transaction, whether as underwriter, advisor, investor or otherwise) of Sanctions Laws. From its inception, Liquidia has not knowingly engaged in and is not now knowingly engaged in any dealings or transactions with any person that at the time of the dealing or transaction is or was the subject or the target of Sanctions Laws or with any Sanctioned Country.

(dd)           Anti-Bribery. Liquidia has not made any contribution or other payment to any official of, or candidate for, any federal, state or foreign office in violation of any law which violation is required to be disclosed. Neither Liquidia, nor any of its affiliates, nor any director, officer, agent, employee or other person associated with or acting on behalf of Liquidia, or any of its affiliates, has (i) used any funds for any unlawful contribution, gift, entertainment or other unlawful expense relating to political activity, (ii) made any direct or indirect unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or employee, to any employee or agent of a private entity with which Liquidia does or seeks to do business or to foreign or domestic political parties or campaigns, (iii) violated or is in violation of any provision of any applicable law or regulation implementing the OECD Convention on Combating Bribery of Foreign Public Officials in International Business Transactions or any applicable provision of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, the U.K. Bribery Act 2010, or any other similar law of any other jurisdiction in which Liquidia operates its business, including, in each case, the rules and regulations thereunder (the “Anti-Bribery Laws”), (iv) taken, is currently taking or will take any action in furtherance of an offer, payment, gift or anything else of value, directly or indirectly, to any person while knowing that all or some portion of the money or value will be offered, given or promised to anyone to improperly influence official action, to obtain or retain business or otherwise to secure any improper advantage or (v) otherwise made any offer, bribe, rebate, payoff, influence payment, unlawful kickback or other unlawful payment; Liquidia has instituted and has maintained, and will continue to maintain, policies and procedures reasonably designed to promote and achieve compliance with the laws referred to in (iii) above and with this representation and warranty; none of Liquidia, nor any of its affiliates will directly or indirectly use the proceeds of the Common Shares or lend, contribute or otherwise make available such proceeds to any subsidiary, affiliate, joint venture partner or other person or entity for the purpose of financing or facilitating any activity that would violate the laws and regulations referred to in (iii) above; there are, and have been, no allegations, investigations or inquiries with regard to a potential violation of any Anti-Bribery Laws by Liquidia, or its affiliates, or any of their respective current or former directors, officers, employees, stockholders, representatives or agents, or other persons acting or purporting to act on their behalf.

(ee)            No Disqualification Events. None of Liquidia, any of its predecessors, any affiliated issuer, any director, executive officer, other officer of Liquidia participating in the offering hereunder, any beneficial owner of 20% or more of Liquidia’s outstanding voting equity securities, calculated on the basis of voting power, nor any promoter (as that term is defined in Rule 405 under the 1933 Act) connected with Liquidia in any capacity at the time of sale (each, an “Issuer Covered Person” and, together, “Issuer Covered Persons”) is subject to any a Disqualification Event, except, if applicable, for a Disqualification Event as to which Rule 506(d)(2)(ii) or (iii) or (d)(3) is applicable. Liquidia has exercised reasonable care to determine whether any Issuer Covered Person is subject to a Disqualification Event. Liquidia has complied, to the extent applicable, with its disclosure obligations under Rule 506(e), and has furnished to the Buyers a copy of any disclosures provided thereunder.

(ff)            Disclosure. Liquidia confirms that neither it nor any other Person acting on its behalf has provided any of the Buyers or their agents or counsel with any information that constitutes or could reasonably be expected to constitute material, non-public information concerning Liquidia, other than the existence of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. Liquidia understands and confirms that each of the Buyers will rely on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in securities of Liquidia. All disclosure provided to the Buyers regarding Liquidia, its business and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the schedules to this Agreement, furnished by or on behalf of Liquidia is true and correct and does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. All of the written information furnished after the date hereof by or on behalf of Liquidia to you pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, taken as a whole, will be true and correct in all material respects as of the date on which such information is so provided and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading. No event or circumstance has occurred or information exists with respect to Liquidia or its business, properties, liabilities, prospects, operations (including results thereof) or conditions (financial or otherwise), which, under applicable law, rule or regulation, requires public disclosure at or before the date hereof or announcement by Liquidia but which has not been so publicly disclosed. Liquidia acknowledges and agrees that no Buyer makes or has made any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than those specifically set forth in Section 2.

(gg)           Disclosure Controls. Liquidia maintains systems of internal accounting controls designed to provide reasonable assurance that (a) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations; (b) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain asset accountability; (c) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization; and (d) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. Liquidia is not aware of any material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in its internal control over financial reporting. To the knowledge of Liquidia, since the date of the latest audited financial statements of Liquidia included within the SEC Reports, there has been no change in Liquidia’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, Liquidia’s internal control over financial reporting. Liquidia has established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in 1934 Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15) for Liquidia and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to Liquidia is made known to the certifying officers by others within Liquidia, particularly during the period in which Liquidia’s Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as the case may be, is being prepared. Liquidia’s certifying officers evaluated the effectiveness of Liquidia’s controls and procedures as of a date within 90 days prior to the filing date of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year most recently ended (such date, the “Evaluation Date”). Liquidia presented in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year most recently ended the conclusions of the certifying officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there have been no significant changes in Liquidia’s internal controls (as such term is defined in Item 307(b) of Regulation S-K under the 1933 Act) or, to Liquidia’s knowledge, in other factors that would significantly adversely affect Liquidia’s internal controls. To the knowledge of Liquidia, Liquidia’s “internal control over financial reporting” and “disclosure controls and procedures” (as such terms are defined under the 1934 Act) are effective at a reasonable assurance level.

(hh)           Clinical Data and Regulatory Compliance.  The preclinical tests and clinical trials, and other studies (collectively, “studies”) that are described in, or the results of which are referred to in, the SEC Reports were and, if still pending, are being conducted in all material respects in accordance with the protocols, procedures and controls designed and approved for such studies and with standard medical and scientific research procedures; each description of the results of such studies is accurate and complete in all material respects and fairly presents the data derived from such studies, and Liquidia has no knowledge of any other studies the results of which are materially inconsistent with, or otherwise call into question, the results described or referred to in the SEC Reports; Liquidia has made all such filings and obtained all such approvals as may be required by the Food and Drug Administration of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services or any committee thereof or from any other U.S. or foreign government or drug or medical device regulatory agency, or health care facility Institutional Review Board (collectively, the “Regulatory Agencies”) based on the location and nature of the relevant study; Liquidia has not received any notice of, or correspondence from, any Regulatory Agency requiring the termination, suspension or modification of any clinical trials that are described or referred to in the SEC Reports; and Liquidia has operated and currently is in compliance in all material respects with all applicable rules, regulations and policies of the Regulatory Agencies.

(ii)              Compliance with Health Care Laws.  Liquidia is, and at all times has been, in material compliance with all applicable Health Care Laws. For purposes of this Agreement, “Health Care Laws” means: (i) the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder; (ii) all applicable federal, state, local and foreign health care laws, including, without limitation, the U.S. Anti-Kickback Statute (42 U.S.C. Section 1320a-7b(b)), the Civil Monetary Penalties Law (42 U.S.C. Section 1320a-7a), the U.S. Civil False Claims Act (31 U.S.C. Section 3729 et seq.), all applicable federal, state, local and all foreign criminal laws relating to health care fraud and abuse, including but not limited to the U.S. False Statements Law (42 U.S.C. Section 1320a-7b(a)), 18 U.S.C. Sections 286 and 287, and the health care fraud criminal provisions under the U.S. Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”) (42 U.S.C. Section 1320d et seq.), the exclusion laws (42 U.S.C. Section 1320a-7), the statutes, regulations and directives of applicable government funded or sponsored healthcare programs, and the regulations promulgated pursuant to such statutes; (iii) to the extent applicable, the Standards for Privacy of Individually Identifiable Health Information (the “Privacy Rule”), the Security Standards, and the Standards for Electronic Transactions and Code Sets promulgated under HIPAA, the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (42 U.S.C. Section 17921 et seq.), and the regulations promulgated thereunder and any state or non-U.S. counterpart thereof or other law or regulation the purpose of which is to protect the privacy of individuals or prescribers; (iv) the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, the regulations promulgated thereunder; (v) the U.S. Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S.C. Section 801 et seq.); (vi) licensure, quality, safety and accreditation requirements under applicable federal, state, local or foreign laws or regulatory bodies; and (vii) all other local, state, federal, national, supranational and foreign laws, relating to the regulation of Liquidia. Liquidia has not received written notice of any claim, action, suit, proceeding, hearing, enforcement, investigation, arbitration or other material action from any court or arbitrator or governmental or regulatory authority or third party alleging that any product operation or activity is in violation of any Health Care Laws nor is any such claim, action, suit, proceeding, hearing, enforcement, investigation, arbitration or other action threatened. Liquidia has filed, obtained, maintained or submitted all material reports, documents, forms, notices, applications, records, claims, submissions and supplements or amendments as required by any Health Care Laws, and all such reports, documents, forms, notices, applications, records, claims, submissions and supplements or amendments were in all material respects timely, complete, accurate and not misleading on the date filed (or were corrected or supplemented by a subsequent submission). Liquidia is not a party to any corporate integrity agreements, monitoring agreements, consent decrees, settlement orders, or similar agreements with or imposed by any governmental or regulatory authority. Additionally, neither Liquidia nor any of its employees, officers or directors has been excluded, suspended or debarred from participation in any U.S. federal health care program or human clinical research or is subject to a governmental inquiry, investigation, proceeding, or other similar action that could reasonably be expected to result in debarment, suspension, or exclusion.

(jj)              No Additional Agreements. Liquidia has no other agreements or understandings (including, without limitation, side letters) with any Buyer to purchase Common Shares on terms more favorable to such Buyer than as set forth herein.

(kk)            Manipulation of Price.  Liquidia has not taken, and, to Liquidia’s knowledge, no Person acting on its behalf has taken, directly or indirectly, any action designed to cause or to result in the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of Liquidia to facilitate the sale or resale of any of the Common Shares.

In connection with any transfer of the Common Shares other than (i) pursuant to an effective registration statement or (ii) to Liquidia, Liquidia may require the transferor thereof to provide to Liquidia an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor and reasonably acceptable to Liquidia, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to Liquidia, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred Common Shares under the 1933 Act.

(g)                Removal of Legends. Subject to Liquidia’s right to request an opinion of counsel as set forth in Section 4(f), the legend set forth in Section 2(p) shall be removable and Liquidia shall issue or cause to be issued a certificate or book-entry evidence of ownership without such legend or any other legend (except for any “affiliates” legend as set forth in Section 2(p)) to the holder of the applicable Common Shares upon which it is stamped, if (i) such Common Shares are registered for resale and resold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act or (ii) such Common Shares are sold or transferred in compliance with Rule 144, including without limitation in compliance with the current public information requirements of Rule 144 if applicable to Liquidia at the time of such sale or transfer, and the holder and its broker have delivered customary documents reasonably requested by counsel to Liquidia in connection with such sale or transfer. Any fees (with respect to the counsel to Liquidia or otherwise) associated with the removal of such legend shall be borne by Liquidia.

(h)                Use of Proceeds. Liquidia shall use the proceeds from the sale of the Common Shares to complete ongoing development of LIQ861 and LIQ865 and for general corporate purposes.

(i)                 Fees. Liquidia and the Buyers shall each pay the fees and expenses of their respective advisers, counsel, accountants and other experts, if any, and all other expenses incurred by such party in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement; except that Liquidia will pay the reasonable fees and expenses of Wyrick Robbins Yates & Ponton LLP, not to exceed Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000), for acting as counsel to Buyer Eshelman Ventures, LLC.

(j)                 Short Sales and Confidentiality After the Date Hereof.  Each Buyer covenants that neither it nor any Affiliates acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will execute any “short sales” during the period from the date hereof until the earlier of such time as (i) the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced or (ii) this Agreement is terminated in full. Each Buyer covenants that until such time as the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed by Liquidia, such Buyer will maintain the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection with this transaction (including the existence and terms of this transaction), other than to such Person’s outside attorney, accountant, auditor or investment advisor only to the extent necessary to permit evaluation of the investment, and the performance of the necessary or required tax, accounting, financial, legal, or administrative tasks and services and other than as may be required by law. Each Buyer understands and acknowledges that the SEC currently takes the position that coverage of “short sales” of shares of the Common Stock “against the box” prior to effectiveness of a resale registration statement with securities included in such registration statement would be a violation of Section 5 of the 1933 Act, as set forth in Item 239.10 of the Securities Act Rules Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations compiled by the Office of Chief Counsel, Division of Corporation Finance.

(k)               Notice of Disqualification Events. Liquidia will notify the Buyers in writing, prior to the Closing Date of (i) any Disqualification Event relating to any Issuer Covered Person and (ii) any event that would, with the passage of time, become a Disqualification Event relating to any Issuer Covered Person, in each case of which it is aware.

(l)                 Subsequent Equity Sales.

(i)                 From the date hereof until 90 days after the Closing Date, without the consent of the Placement Agent, Liquidia shall not offer to sell, sell, contract to sell, grant any option to sell or otherwise dispose of any Common Stock (other than the Common Shares offered pursuant to this Agreement) or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, warrants or any rights to purchase or acquire, Common Stock prior to the termination of this Agreement; provided, however, that such restrictions will not be required in connection with Liquidia’s (i) issuance or sale of Common Stock, options to purchase Common Stock or Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of options, restricted stock units or other equity awards pursuant to any employee or director share option, incentive or benefit plan, share purchase or ownership plan, long-term incentive plan, dividend reinvestment plan, inducement award under the rules of Nasdaq or other compensation plan of Common Stock, whether now in effect or hereafter implemented, disclosed in the SEC Reports (or, in the case of an inducement award under Nasdaq rules, disclosed by press release), (ii) issuance or sale of Common Stock issuable upon exchange, conversion or redemption of securities or the exercise or vesting of warrants, options, restricted stock units or other equity awards outstanding at the date of this Agreement or disclosed in the SEC Reports, (iii) issuance or sale of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock as consideration for mergers, acquisitions, other business combinations, joint ventures or strategic alliances, marketing or distribution arrangements, collaboration agreements, co-promotion agreements or intellectual property license agreements occurring after the date of this Agreement which are not used for capital raising purposes, provided, that the aggregate number of Common Stock issued or issuable does not exceed 10% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately following the Closing and (iv) modification of any outstanding options, warrants, restricted stock units or any other rights to purchase or acquire Common Stock.

5.            CONDITIONS TO LIQUIDIA’S OBLIGATION TO ISSUE AND SELL.

The obligation of Liquidia hereunder to issue and sell the Common Shares at the Closing is subject to the satisfaction, at or before the Closing Date, of each of the following conditions, provided that these conditions are for Liquidia’s sole benefit and may be waived by Liquidia at any time in its sole discretion by providing each Buyer with prior written notice thereof:

(iv)            All authorizations, approvals or permits, if any, of any governmental authority or regulatory body of the United States or of any state that are required in connection with the lawful issuance and sale of the Common Shares pursuant to this Agreement shall be obtained and effective as of the Closing.

6.            CONDITIONS TO EACH BUYER’S OBLIGATION TO PURCHASE.

The obligation of each Buyer hereunder to purchase the Common Shares at the Closing is subject to the satisfaction, at or before the Closing Date, of each of the following conditions, provided that these conditions are for each Buyer’s sole benefit and may be waived by such Buyer at any time in its sole discretion by providing Liquidia with prior written notice thereof:

Such Buyer shall have received a certificate, executed by the Chief Executive Officer of Liquidia, dated as of the Closing Date, to the foregoing effect and as to such other matters as may be reasonably requested by such Buyer in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D.

7.           TERMINATION OF OBLIGATIONS TO EFFECT CLOSING; EFFECTS.

The obligations of Liquidia, on the one hand, and the Buyers, on the other hand, to effect the Closing shall terminate as follows:

(i)              Upon the mutual written consent of Liquidia and Buyers that agreed to purchase a majority of the Common Shares to be issued and sold pursuant to this Agreement;

(ii)             By Liquidia if any of the conditions set forth in Section 5 shall have become incapable of fulfillment, and shall not have been waived by Liquidia;

(iii)            By a Buyer (with respect to itself only) if any of the conditions set forth in Section 6 shall have become incapable of fulfillment, and shall not have been waived by the Buyer; or

(iv)             By either Liquidia or any Buyer (with respect to itself only) if the Closing has not occurred on or prior to January 15, 2020;

provided, however, that, except in the case of clause (i) above, the party seeking to terminate its obligation to effect the Closing shall not then be in breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents if such breach has resulted in the circumstances giving rise to such party’s seeking to terminate its obligation to effect the Closing.

In the event of termination by Liquidia or any Buyer of its obligations to effect the Closing pursuant to this Section 7, written notice thereof shall be given to the other Buyers by Liquidia and the other Buyers shall have the right to terminate their obligations to effect the Closing upon written notice to Liquidia and the other Buyers. Nothing in this Section 7 shall be deemed to release any party from any liability for any breach by such party of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or to impair the right of any party to compel specific performance by any other party of its obligations under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents.

8.            INDEMNIFICATION.

(a)            Indemnification. Liquidia agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Buyer and its Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, trustees, members, managers, employees, investment advisers and agents, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including without limitation reasonable and documented attorney fees and disbursements and other documented out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim or proceeding, pending or threatened and the costs of enforcement thereof) to which such Person may become subject as a result of any breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by or to be performed on the part of Liquidia under the Transaction Documents, and will reimburse any such Person for all such amounts as they are incurred by such Person solely to the extent such amounts have been finally judicially determined not to have resulted from such Person’s fraud, bad faith or willful misconduct.

(b)           Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification and (ii) permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided that any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such person unless (a) the indemnifying party has agreed in writing to pay such fees or expenses, (b) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such person or (c) in the reasonable judgment of any such person, based upon written advice of its counsel, a conflict of interest exists between such person and the indemnifying party with respect to such claims (in which case, if the person notifies the indemnifying party in writing that such person elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such claim on behalf of such person); and provided, further, that the failure of any indemnified party to give written notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that such failure to give notice shall materially adversely affect the indemnifying party in the defense of any such claim or litigation. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for fees or expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all such indemnified parties. No indemnifying party will, except with the consent of the indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation. No indemnified party will, except with the consent of the indemnifying party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement.

9.            MISCELLANEOUS.

(a)               Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Jury Trial. This Agreement and any related dispute shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts executed in and to be performed in that State. Each of the parties hereto hereby (a) irrevocably submits to the personal jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of New York (or, if the Supreme Court of the State of New York declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state or federal court within the State of New York) in the event that any dispute arises out of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (b) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction or venue by motion or other request for leave from any such court and (c) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than the Supreme Court of the State of New York and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of New York (or, if the Supreme Court of the State of New York declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state or federal court within the State of New York). EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENTS, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

(b)               Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party; provided that a facsimile, .pdf or any other electronic signature complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000 (e.g., www.docusign.com) shall be considered due execution and shall be binding upon the signatory thereto with the same force and effect as if the signature were an original, not a facsimile, .pdf or other electronic signature.

(c)               Headings. The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Agreement.

(d)               Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement so long as this Agreement as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).

(e)               Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents supersede all other prior oral or written agreements between Liquidia, its affiliates and Persons acting on their behalf, on the one hand, and the Buyers, their affiliates and Persons acting on their behalf, on the other hand, with respect to the matters discussed herein, and this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the instruments referenced herein and therein contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the matters covered herein and therein and, except as specifically set forth herein or therein, neither Liquidia nor any Buyer makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters. No provision of this Agreement may be amended other than by an instrument in writing signed by Liquidia and the holders of at least a majority of the aggregate amount of Common Shares issued hereunder, and any amendment to this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions of this Section 9(e) shall be binding on all Buyers and holders of Common Shares and Liquidia; provided, that any such amendment or waiver that complies with the foregoing but that disproportionately, materially and adversely affects the rights and obligations of any Buyer relative to the comparable rights and obligations of the other Buyers shall require the prior written consent of such adversely affected Buyer (for the avoidance of doubt, participation by any Buyer in an unrelated financing by Liquidia shall not be deemed to disproportionately affect the Buyers who do not participate in such financing). No provisions hereto may be waived other than by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought. No such amendment shall be effective to the extent that it applies to less than all of the Buyers or holders of the applicable Common Shares then outstanding. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration (other than the reimbursement of legal fees) also is offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents and holders of Common Shares, as the case may be.

(f)                Notices. Any notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents must be in writing and will be deemed to have been delivered: (i) upon receipt, when delivered personally; (ii) upon delivery by electronic mail; (iii) upon delivery, when sent by electronic mail (provided, that the sending party does not receive an automated rejection notice); or (iv) one (1) Business Day after deposit with an overnight courier service, in each case properly addressed to the party to receive the same. For purposes of this Section 9(f), “Business Day” means any day, excluding Saturday, Sunday and any day which is a legal holiday in the City of New York or is a day on which banking institutions located in the City of New York are authorized or required by law or other governmental action to close. The addresses and e-mail addresses for such communications shall be:

If to a Buyer, to its address, facsimile number and e-mail address set forth on the Schedule of Buyers attached hereto, with copies to such Buyer’s representatives as set forth on the Schedule of Buyers attached hereto, or to such other address and/or e-mail address and/or to the attention of such other Person as the recipient party has specified by written notice given to each other party five (5) calendar days prior to the effectiveness of such change. Written confirmation of receipt (A) given by the recipient of such notice, consent, waiver or other communication, (B) mechanically or electronically generated by the sender’s e-mail containing the time and date or (C) provided by an overnight courier service shall be rebuttable evidence of personal service, receipt by facsimile or receipt from an overnight courier service in accordance with clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above, respectively.

(g)               Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns, including any purchasers of the Common Shares. Liquidia shall not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Buyers (other than by merger, consolidation or to an entity which acquires Liquidia, including by way of acquiring all or substantially all of Liquidia’s assets). No Buyer may assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Liquidia.

(h)               Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Placement Agent is an intended third-party beneficiary of the representations and warranties of each Buyer and Liquidia set forth in Section 2 and Section 3, respectively, of this Agreement.

(i)                 Survival. The representations and warranties of the Buyers and Liquidia contained in Section 2 and Section 3, respectively, and the agreements and covenants set forth in Section 4, Section 8 and this Section 9 shall survive the Closing. Liquidia and each Buyer shall be responsible only for its own representations, warranties, agreements and covenants hereunder.

(j)             Further Assurances. Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as any other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(k)            No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party.

(l)             Remedies. Each Buyer and each holder of the Common Shares shall have all rights and remedies set forth in the Transaction Documents and all rights and remedies which such holders have been granted at any time under any other agreement or contract and all of the rights which such holders have under any law. The parties agree that irreparable damage may occur in the event that any of the provisions of the Transaction Documents were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached and that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by the Buyers or Liquidia by reason of any breach of any such provisions. As such, the non-breaching party shall be entitled to seek equitable relief, including an injunction and specific performance, as a remedy for any such breach.

(m)          Independent Nature of Buyers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Buyer under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Buyer, and no Buyer shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Buyer under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Buyer pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Buyers as, and Liquidia acknowledges that the Buyers do not so constitute, a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Buyers are in any way acting in concert or as a group, and Liquidia shall not assert any such claim with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and Liquidia acknowledges that the Buyers are not acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Liquidia acknowledges and each Buyer confirms that it has independently participated in the negotiation of the transaction contemplated hereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors. Each Buyer shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of any other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Buyer to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

(n)           Waiver of Conflicts. Each Buyer acknowledges that: (a) it has read this Agreement; (b) it has been represented in the preparation, negotiation and execution of this Agreement by legal counsel of its own choice or has voluntarily declined to seek such counsel; and (c) it understands the terms and consequences of this Agreement and is fully aware of the legal and binding effect of this Agreement. Each Buyer understands that Liquidia has been represented in the preparation, negotiation and execution of this Agreement by DLA Piper LLP (US) and that DLA Piper LLP (US) now or may in the future represent one or more Buyers or their affiliates in matters unrelated to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the representation of such Buyers or their affiliates in matters of a nature similar to those contemplated by this Agreement. Liquidia and each Buyer hereby acknowledge that they have had an opportunity to ask for and have obtained information relevant to such representation, including disclosure of the reasonably foreseeable adverse consequences of such representation, and hereby waives any conflict arising out of such representation solely with respect to the matters contemplated by this Agreement.

(o)           Exculpation of the Placement Agent. Each party acknowledges that it has read the notice available at http://www.jefferies.com/CMSFiles/Jefferies.com/files/Reg%20A%20and%20D%20Disclosure%207_2014(1).pdf and hereto agrees for the express benefit of each of the Placements Agents, their affiliates and their representatives that:

(i)                 Neither the Placement Agent nor any of its affiliates or any of their representatives (1) has any duties or obligations other than those specifically set forth herein or in the engagement letter, dated as of December 23, 2019, between Liquidia and Jefferies LLC (the “Engagement Letter”); (2) shall be liable for any improper payment made in accordance with the information provided by Liquidia; (3) makes any representation or warranty, or has any responsibilities as to the validity, accuracy, value or genuineness of any information, certificates or documentation delivered by or on behalf of Liquidia pursuant to this Agreement or the Transaction Documents or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby; or (4) shall be liable (x) for any action taken, suffered or omitted by any of them in good faith and reasonably believed to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement or any Transaction Document or (y) for anything which any of them may do or refrain from doing in connection with this Agreement or any Transaction Document, except in each case for such party’s own gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith.

(ii)              The Placement Agent, its affiliates and their representatives shall be entitled to (1) rely on, and shall be protected in acting upon, any certificate, instrument, notice, letter or any other document or security delivered to any of them by or on behalf of Liquidia, and (2) be indemnified by Liquidia for acting as the Placement Agent hereunder pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in the Engagement Letter.

(p)           Publicity. Except as set forth below, no public release or announcement concerning the transactions contemplated hereby shall be issued by the Buyers without the prior consent of Liquidia, except as such release or announcement may be required by law or the applicable rules or regulations of any securities exchange or securities market, in which case the Buyers shall allow Liquidia reasonable time to comment on such release or announcement in advance of such issuance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Buyer may identify Liquidia and the value of such Buyer’s security holdings in Liquidia in accordance with applicable investment reporting and disclosure regulations or internal policies without prior notice to or consent from the Liquidia (including, for the avoidance of doubt, filings pursuant to Sections 13 and 16 of the 1934 Act). Liquidia shall not include the name of any Buyer or any Affiliate or investment adviser of such Buyer in any press release or public announcement (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include any SEC filing to the extent such disclosure is required by SEC rules and regulations) without the prior written consent of such Buyer. By 8:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day immediately following the date this Agreement is executed, Liquidia shall issue a press release disclosing all material terms of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any other material nonpublic information that Liquidia may have provided any Buyer at any time prior to the filing of such press release (the “Press Release”). From and after the issuance of the Press Release, no Buyer shall be in possession of any material nonpublic information received from Liquidia, its subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents (including the Placement Agent). No later than 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the first Business Day following the date this Agreement is executed, Liquidia will file a Current Report on Form 8-K attaching the press release described in the foregoing sentence as well as copies of the Transaction Documents. In addition, Liquidia will make such other filings and notices in the manner and time required by the SEC or Nasdaq. Liquidia shall not, and shall cause each of its officers, directors, employees and agents not to, provide any Buyer with any such material nonpublic information regarding Liquidia from and after the filing of the Press Release without the express prior written consent of such Buyer.

(b)           The obligation of the Company to bear and pay the Registration Expenses shall apply irrespective of whether a registration, once properly demanded or requested, becomes effective or is withdrawn or suspended, including one (1) request by one or more Holder(s) to withdraw any Registration Statement; provided, that, after such first request by one or more Holder(s), the Registration Expenses for any Registration Statement withdrawn at the request of one or more Holder(s) shall be borne by such Holder(s).

2.5          Indemnification.

(a)            The Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, any Person who is or might be deemed to be a “controlling person” of the Holder or any of its subsidiaries within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each such Person, a “Controlling Person”) and their respective direct and indirect general and limited partners, advisory board members, directors, officers, trustees, managers, members, employees, agents, Affiliates and shareholders, and each other Person, if any, who acts on behalf or controls any such Holder or Controlling Person (collectively, the “Holder Indemnified Parties”) from and against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, joint or several, or any actions in respect thereof to which each Holder Indemnified Party may become subject under the Securities Act, Exchange Act, any state blue sky securities laws, any equivalent non-U.S. securities laws or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, expenses or actions arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in or incorporated by reference in any Registration Statement or in any amendment thereof, in each case at the time such became effective under the Securities Act, or in the preliminary Prospectus, free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act or any successor rule thereto) or other information that is deemed, under Rule 159 promulgated under the Securities Act to have been conveyed to purchasers of securities at the time of sale of such securities (“Disclosure Package”), in the Prospectus or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a Disclosure Package or any Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, and the Company shall reimburse, as incurred, the Holder Indemnified Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating, defending or settling any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action in respect thereof; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or omission made or incorporated by reference in any such Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package, any Prospectus or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto in reliance upon and in conformity with written information pertaining to a Holder and furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder Indemnified Party specifically for inclusion therein; and provided further, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Disclosure Package, where (A) such statement or omission had been eliminated or remedied in any subsequently filed amended prospectus or prospectus supplement (the Disclosure Package, together with such updated documents, the “Updated Disclosure Package”), the filing of which such Holder had been notified in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (B) such Updated Disclosure Package was available at the time such Holder sold Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement, (C) such Updated Disclosure Package was not furnished by such Holder to the Person asserting the loss, liability, claim, damage, liability, expense or action, or an underwriter involved in the distribution of such Registrable Securities, at or prior to the time such furnishing is required by the Securities Act, (D) the Updated Disclosure Package would have cured the defect giving rise to such loss, liability, claim, damage, liability, expense or action, and (E) the Updated Disclosure Package was provided to the Holder and the Holder failed to use such Updated Disclosure Package and such failure led to the loss, liability, claim, damage, liability, expense or action. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Holder Indemnified Parties and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by any Holder.

(b)            In connection with any registration in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, each such Holder shall furnish to the Company in writing such information as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or Prospectus and shall to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors and officers, employees, agents and any Person who is or might be deemed to be a Controlling Person (a “Company Indemnified Party”) from and against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses or any actions in respect thereof, to which a Company Indemnified Party may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state blue sky securities laws, any equivalent non-U.S. securities laws or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or in any amendment thereof, in each case at the time such became effective under the Securities Act, or in any Disclosure Package, Prospectus or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the Disclosure Package or any Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, but in each of clauses (i) and (ii), only to the extent that the untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information pertaining to such Holder and furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for inclusion therein, and, subject to the limitation immediately preceding this clause, shall reimburse, as incurred, the Company Indemnified Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating, defending or settling any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action in respect thereof. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Holder, or any such director, officer, employees, Affiliates and agents and shall survive the transfer of such Registrable Securities by such Holder, and such Holder shall reimburse the Company, and each such director, officer, employees, Affiliates and agents for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating, defending, or settling and such loss, claim, damage, liability, action, or proceeding. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or any such director, officer, employees, Affiliates and agents and shall survive the transfer by a Holder of such Registrable Securities.

(c)            Promptly after receipt by a Holder Indemnified Party or a Company Indemnified Party (each, an “Indemnified Party”) of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including a governmental investigation), such Indemnified Party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 2.5, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; provided, that the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from liability under Sections 2.5(a) or 2.5(b) unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and the indemnifying party has been materially prejudiced by such failure. In case any such action is brought against any Indemnified Party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof at the indemnifying party’s expense, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party (who shall not, except with the consent of the Indemnified Party, be counsel to the indemnifying party); provided, that any Indemnified Party shall continue to be entitled to participate in the defense of such claim or action, with counsel of its own choice, but the indemnifying party shall not be obligated to reimburse such Indemnified Party for any fees, costs and expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with such defense unless (i) the indemnifying party has agreed in writing to pay such fees, costs and expenses, (ii) the indemnifying party has failed to assume the defense of such claim or action within a reasonable time after receipt of notice of such claim or action, (iii) having assumed the defense of such claim or action, the indemnifying party fails to employ counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party or to pursue the defense of such claim or action in a reasonably vigorous manner, (iv) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the Indemnified Party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest or (v) the Indemnified Party has reasonably concluded that there may be one or more legal or equitable defenses available to it and/or other any other Indemnified Party which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party. In no event shall the indemnifying party be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (together with appropriate local counsel) at any time for any Indemnified Party in connection with any one action or separate but substantially similar or related actions arising in the same jurisdiction out of the same general allegations or circumstances. An indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any action or claim referred to in this Section 2.5 effected without its prior written consent.

(d)           If the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.5 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an Indemnified Party under Sections 2.5(a) or 2.5(b), then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to in Sections 2.5(a) or 2.5(b) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the Indemnified Party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or a Holder or Holder Indemnified Party, as the case may be, on the other, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid by an Indemnified Party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this Section 2.5 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim that is the subject of this Section 2.5(d). The parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions were determined by pro rata allocation (even if a Holder was treated as one Person for such purpose) or any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, in no event will a Holder be required to pay via indemnification or contribution an amount in excess of its net proceeds of sales of Shares under the Registration Statement. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

ARTICLE III
Transfer Restrictions

3.1            Transfer Restrictions. Each Holder acknowledges and agrees that the following legend shall be imprinted on any certificate or book-entry security entitlement evidencing any of the Registrable Securities:

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE. THESE SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY AND RESALE AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED OR RESOLD EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER THE ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, PURSUANT TO REGISTRATION OR EXEMPTION THEREFROM. INVESTORS SHOULD BE AWARE THAT THEY MAY BE REQUIRED TO BEAR THE FINANCIAL RISKS OF THIS INVESTMENT FOR AN INDEFINITE PERIOD OF TIME. THE ISSUER OF THESE SECURITIES MAY REQUIRE AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER TO THE EFFECT THAT ANY PROPOSED TRANSFER OR RESALE IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

This legend shall be removed by the Company from any certificate or book-entry security entitlement evidencing the Registrable Securities upon delivery by the holder thereof to the Company of a written request to that effect if at the time of such written request (a) a registration statement under the Securities Act is at that time in effect with respect to the legended security, or (b) the legended security can be transferred in a transaction in compliance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act, and, in the case of (b), upon the request and in the reasonable discretion of the Company’s transfer agent, the holder of such Registrable Securities executes and delivers a representation letter that includes customary representations regarding the holding requirements and whether such holder is an “affiliate” for purposes of Rule 144 under the Securities Act. The Company represents and warrants to the Holders that the Company is not currently a shell company (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act).

3.2          Rule 144 Compliance. With a view to making available to the Holders of Registrable Securities the benefits of Rule 144 and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit a Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration, until the date on which the Holder no longer hold any Registrable Securities, the Company shall:

(a)            make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;

(b)            use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and

(c)            furnish to any Holder of Registrable Securities, upon request, a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 and of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.

ARTICLE IV
Miscellaneous

4.11         Termination. This Agreement shall terminate with respect to any Holder upon such time as such Holder ceases to hold or beneficially own any remaining Registrable Securities or upon the dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company; provided, that Section 2.5 of this Agreement and this Article IV shall survive such termination.
